Dainty

Tenby, Pembrokeshire. At 1.55 on the afternoon of the 9th of June, 1960, the coastguard informed the honorary secretary that a small boat was in difficulties in Saundersfoot Bay. At 2.1 the life-boat Henry Comber Brown was launched at low water in a moderate westerly wind and a rough sea. She found the dinghy Dainty with her out- board motor broken down two miles east of Saundersfoot. The life-boat took the dinghy in tow and landed her two occupants. She reached her station at four o'clock. Rewards to the crew, £7 ; rewards to the helpers on shore, £3 15s..
